The Dublin band INHALER has been getting a lot of buzz lately. Fronted by Bono’s son Eli Hewson, the band has just released a slobberknocker of a new single called My Honest Face. Noel Gallagher has described the band as a mix between Echo And The Bunnymen with old U2, which seems appropriate given their lineage.
INHALER is on the road with Noel Gallagher’s High Flying Birds on a few dates, as well as a few appearances with The Courteeners. That is pretty good company. I expect we will be hearing an awful lot from these lads in the new future.

Lyrics
I could be Elvis on a Tuesday night
1, 2, 3, 4, 5, alright
I could look good in a certain light
So don’t look too close at me tonightHoney, I could play the Joker
My made up smile broke your heart last night
No no no, I didn’t wanna hurt ya
But there’s just a certain culture when you’re young
When you’re youngBaby, I’ll take you to an honest place
Darling, I just can’t find my honest face, my honest faceI could be a killer, gonna get you whacked
1, 2, 3, 4, 5 in the bag
And you have to get up to try and get outta hand
It’s all working out just like I plannedAnd honey, I could play the hater
Acted like I hated her last night
No, no no, I didn’t wanna hurt ya
But there’s just a certain culture when you’re young
C-call it funBaby, I’ll take you to an honest place
Darling, I just can’t find my honest face, my honest faceI-I-I wanna be
Up-up-up on TV, yeah
yeah
I wanna, wanna, wanna, wanna, wanna
I-I-I wanna be
On TV, yeah
I wanna be
yeah
D-d-doing what I wanna, wanna beI’ll take you to an honest place
Darling, I just can’t find my honest face
It’s all over the place, it’s all over the place
